j.k. rowelling's "fantastic beast." "early today" starts right now. theers voters have spoken and the big super tuesday winners are donald trump and hillary clinton. trump won arkansas, vermont, georgia, massachusetts, virginia and vermont. clinton also won seven taking massachusetts, arkansas, tennessee virginia, texas. and bernie sanders managed four victories. ted cruz won three states, home state of texas, oklahoma, and he just added alaska for good measure. marco rubio pulling out a victory in minnesota. a calmer and more measured version of donald trump is already looking ahead to hillary clinton. >> this has been an amazing

been amazing even from an educational standpoint and honestly, we've done something that almost nobody thought could be done and i'm very proud of it. i am a unifier. i would love to see the republican party and everybody get together and unify and when we unify, there's nobody, nobody that's going to beat us. i beat hillary in many polls p.. i don't think marco's going to be able to beat her. i'm going to get along great with congress. paul ryan, i don't know him well and we're going to get along well and if we don't, he's going to have to pay a big price, okay. >> and hillary clinton touch ogen the water crisis in flint, michigan and criticizing the gop. >> thank you all so much. what a super tuesday. i'm grateful to all of you who

to the volunteers and organizers. i know you've worked your hearts out. we know there are many other flints out there. communities that are hurting and need help but wreever come too far in this country to let us turn back. we're going to build on the progress that we've made. the rhetoric we're hearing on the other side has never been lower. trying to divide america between us and them is wrong and we're not going to let it work. now this campaign moves forward to the crescent city, the motor city and beyond. [ applause ] >> ted cruz surprised some political watchers by taking oklahoma and of course, he had an impressive win in his home state of texas as well as a late victory in alaska. he pitched himself as the trump alternative.

don't want to see donald as the nominee, i would welcome and encourage them. the only way to beat donald trump is for us to stand together united. if donald trump is the nominee, i think we lose the senate, lose to hillary, lose the supreme court for a generation and the bill of rights. it's my hope that as party we come together and say stop this madness. do not nominate a candidate who will drive the party off a cliff. >> well, cruz was able to pick up 171 delegates, rubio, 82 and the donald won 210 delegates, bringing his total to 292. clinton won seven to bernie sanders's four. but he's not too concerned. >> you're going to see a lot of election result s

these are not -- this is not a general election. it's not winner take all. if you get 52%, 48%, you roughly end up with the same amount of delegates in a state. by the end of tonight, we are going to win many hundreds of delegates. [ applause ] >> sanders picked up 295 delegates last night while clinton won 461, bringing her lead to 979 to 382. so, after spending nearly a year in space, astronaut scott kelly is feeling the full gravity of earth. they landed just before midnight eastern time. kelly and one had been on board for a record number of days.

of course not. >> we just want them to fulfill their constitutional duty and do their job and at this stage they decided not to do that. they're going to wait and see what president trump will do, i guess. . >> senator reed added after an impass, they spend the rest of the time talking about basketball. nbc's meteorologist bill karins is here with our wednesday forecast. >> we had severe storms yesterday. alabama got hit. some of the worst damage near birmingham. the only problem spots are northern new england. we have a wintry mess. some freezing rain, others sleet. the white is all snow and we have snow in western and cleveland and pittsburgh, numerous snow showers.

fido doesn't know what to make of the robo-dog. so, as the dust from super tuesday cleared, we can look deeper into the exit poll data. we found something very promising for republicans but potentially worrying for democrats. >> we can tell you everything you're saying on the republican side, this is what we've been seeing the whole year. they're shattering records. having their best turnout ever. on the flip side, we've been seeing it down on the democrats side. since the last time they had one of these competitive primaries, that was 2008, obama. virginia, down 14%. vermont, down 13%. massachusetts, down 5, georgia down 2. look, there's two ways to look at that. one is bernie sanders, the

is this is a political revelation rev revolution revolution, it's going to bring all these new people to the process that have never participated before. if that was coming to fruition, they would be shattering records. 2008, there are democrats who say yes, it's troubling the turn out is up and the democratic turnout is down. but they would say 2008 is something we may never see again. that race between hillary clinton and barack obama and the type of support that both of them motivated, the iraq war, post katrina, bush fatigue. there were so many factors in the air in 2008 that it's a little unfair to compare the democrats of 2008 to the democrats of any future. >> and we have the numbers right here. as of 3:30 a.m. eastern, the super tuesday turnout has nearly
